The arc on Pargo's shot is beautiful.

I think Howard wants out. Playing like crap in the playoff's. Saying publically that you smoke weed in the offseason. Saying a lot of other players do to.

He's packing his bags already.....

Julian Wright is one of the few Hornets players to impress me so far, he really has great length and speed. He's like a more athletic Tayshaun Prince.

I wouldn't say that because of his play-making ability and the Kansas team-based system, being too unselfish at times actually

Does have to extend and work on his shot, though

I think it's because Howard's an iso-based player, and the New Orleans defense to a degree here

No. Have you seen him this game? Most of his shots are WIDE OPEN. When I say WIDE OPEN, I mean REALLY WIDE OPEN. WIDE OPEN to the extent that defenders are no less than 5 feet from him. That's WIDE OPEN!

He just didn't attack the baskets. A person shooting that terrible still trying jumpshots? He's not even a decent shooter. I'd even go on a limb to say that at least 12 of his 16 shots are JUMPSHOTS.

How ironic would it be if the the Mavs ended up trading someone like Kidd and Josh Howard to the Knicks for the #5 pick and a terrible contract to pick up Jerryd Bayless.

Here is a description of him from nbadraft.net

"combines incredible speed, quickness and athleticism with a high level of intelligence and composure ... Winners mentality ... He really excels on the offensive end of the floor with his scoring ability ... Has an extra gear blowing by defenders with ease."

Now look at the description they had for Devin Harris...

"Athletic guard who has excellent quickness and leaping ability

Yeah I know, but that still relates to how he's played and was a general statement too...

This game, no probably not much of the defense, and more of himself and not getting into his kind of game.

This honestly might be my favorite game I have seen Paul play.

He was calm cool and collected, he attacked when his team needed him too but otherwise he played his game and made everyone better and the team looked terrific. He never tried to do too much, he picked his spots and made the Mavs pay.

Great job tonight for Paul even though his stats may not be what they were in games 1 and 2.
